I love the location of this Inn! It sits on the west side of HWY 1 and you can take what feel's like a secret trail right to a sandy beach that goes for miles. The Inn itself is about 5 miles north of town with a very low key and romantic setting. We were looking for a private weekend... More

We stayed in the Novarrow suite for six nights from July 29th to August 3rd. It felt like we were staying in our own little house. It was quiet and peaceful with a wonderful view of woods. The suggestions in a book left on the table for guests sent us to beautiful places we wouldn't have known existed. We plan... More

I would not recommend this place based on a list of bad experiences. Most of all, the owner does not put the customer first. The walls were thin and we could hear conversations in the adjacent rooms all night. There was a puddle of water next to the toilet left over from the cleaner or, worse, the previous guest. One...

We first stayed at the Cleone "Lodge" as it was called back in 1980 for our 7th anniversary. Somehow we didn't make it back until our 37th (raising a family, etc.) 3 years ago. It was awesome to meet the new owners and we even showed them pictures to show what it looked like when we stayed there so long... More

A well deserved rating. Cleone Gardens Inn is a family owned and operated business. When we arrived about 6pm Friday evening, the owners were gone, but left an envelope taped to the door with instructions and a key. We didn't mind - it was just a different way of doing check-in. To our surprise we were upgraded to the Novarro... More

I have stayed at the Cleone Gardens Inn many times in several different rooms and have always had a great visit. The rooms are clean, cozy, and very comfortable. The grounds are beautiful and full of rhododendrons, foxgloves, cala lilies, and many other beautiful flowers throughout the year. I also love that it is family owned & operated, it is... More

We spent two nights at this delightful small motel recently and loved every minute of it. Small, but very comfortable rooms with excellent linens and other amenities. Our King Charles Spaniel was treated like a special guest. The gardens are beautiful and well maintained. We will definitely return.

My husband and I fully enjoyed our stay at the Cleone Gardens. The suite was spotless and well-appointed complete with well-stocked kitchen. The bed was comfy with lovely linens, and the fireplace made the suite even cozier. Our hostesses did everything to ensure our comfort. The suite was very accessible for my husband who has mobility challenges, though there are... More

My husband and I stayed at the Inn the weekend following NewYears. Sure, the entire area surrounding Fort Bragg was rather quiet after the holidays. Staying here(we had the Mackerricker room) was awesome. Peaceful and quiet. Real glass wine glasses and corkscrew made my forgetfulness seem not so bad. Pleasant hostesses and a nice canine reception made for a very... More
